Resending because rust ML doesn't like big messages:

From: rust-for-linux-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
To: rust-for-linux-approval@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, bp@xxxxxxxxx
Subject: BOUNCE rust-for-linux@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx: Message too long (>100000 chars)

Rust folks, you can check out the whole thing here:

(and maybe raise the limit on that ML of yours :))

Thx.
